The Death Watch Set.
Independence, Mo June % Ed. Sneed,
who will hang here Friday, for the killing
of o. III. LOOMS, at Kansas City, in July,
1884, is very calm, and has given up every
hope of interference on the part of the
governor, notwithstanding that his sister,
Mrs. Charles Kendall, and the Mother
Superior of St. Msry's Academy are to-day
in Jefferson City for the purpose of inter-
ceding with Gov. Marmaduke for him.
He also says that he has abandoned the
thought of committing suicide, which he
had so often said he would do. The scat
fold is completed, having been erected In
the rear of the Jail 1t is surrounded by .
wall thirty feet high. Sneed did not finch
while the construction of the gallows was
going on within his hearing. His mother
and Maggie Flynn have been with him
most of the day. He became acquainted
with the latter when she was ;ncsrcerated
in Jail for carrying saws in Jail for the
purpose of aiding in escape, and now he
seems deeply ensmored of her. The death
watch was set last night. 1t is expected
that he will to morrow embrace the Catho-

NJ. Pasteur Oh Hydrophebia.

PHILADELPHIA, July 14.-The Medical
News, in it's issue OF this week. will contain
a lengthy abstract OF the report presented
to Parliament last week by the British
Commission, appointed last year to in
uuire into M. Pasteur's treatment OF
hydrophobia. From this abstract the
following paragraphs are taken:
1t may hence be deemed certain that M.
Pasteur has discovered q method of pro-
lection from rabies, compatible with that
which vaccination affords against injection
from smallpox. 1t would be difficult to
over-estimate the Importance OF the dis
covery, whether for it's practical utility. or
for it's application to general
pathology. It shows q new method
of innoculation, or, as M. Pasteur some
times calls it, vaccination, the like ofwhich
may become possible to employ for the
protection of both man and domestic ami
mails against others of the most intense
kinds of virus. The dnration OF immun-
itv conferred by the innoculation is not
yet determined; though two years
that have passed since it was first
proved. There are no indications OF its
being limited" The commissioner thinks
f. therefore certain that the innoculations
practiced by M. Pasteur have prevented
the occurrence of hydrophobia. A large
proportion of those, if they had not been
innoculated, would have died OF that
disease, and his discovery shows that it
NAV become possible to arrest by innocu-
lation, even after injection Of other dis
eases besides hydrophobia. His researches
have also added very materially to the
knowledge OF the pathology OF hydropho-
bia and supplied some means OF determ'n-
ing whether an animal, which has died un.
der suspicion OF rabies was really Injected
with that disease or not. The Medical
News saws editorially: The report OF tue
British Commission constitutes the
al blest defense of M. Pasteur's method
which has yet been made, and it is q case
for congratuIation, that men SO competent
to observe facts and weigh evidence have
been able, after full Investigation, to
reach a unanimous conclusion as to the
| the phylactic value ofinnoculation.

could not present to the United States
Senate, as that body had decided in the
case of Senator Payne OF Ohio, that in
order that such question might be within
the line of Investigation by the Senate. he
Senator-elect, must be charged with having
knowledge of such corrupt use of money.
Mr.. Hill had not charged Teller with such
knowledge. He thought Mr.. Hill should be
required to give this commission the names
OF the witnesses whom he relied on to prove
the charges or to be compelled to admit that
the charges were without foundation. Mr..
Teller thought the Commissioners should
call the men who handle the money of the
Union Pacific and the other roads running
through Colorado. They should be under
oath and required to testify to any con.
nection by them with the Senatorial con-
test and their accounts should be examined.
Governor Pattison said that Mr.. Hill had
furnished the names Of five persons whom
the Commission had examined and there
were two whom the Commission had tried
to reach by subpoena but could not, those
two were E. o Wolcott and w. II. Price.
Mr.. Teller said these gentlemen were not
friends of his, (Teller's). The Commission
will hear further testimony tonight and
will 60 to Leadville tomorrow.

Of the passage Of the Interstate law. The
second was to dismiss complaints on the
general ground that theso.called testimony
submitted was taken without notice to the
defendant, and without giving an oppor-
tunity to croes-examine the witnesses.
The Commissioner, after consultation,
stated to Burdett that there seemed to be
no reason for his further attendance. and
that his decision would be made q matter
OF record. The action of the Commissioner
is equivalent to q dismissal.

Against the Fidelity Bank.

CINCINNATI, July 12.-Somewhao unex-
pected]y the final decree was entered by Or
der Of Judge Sage this after noon ag inst
the Fidelity National Bank and it's direct
ors and officers to forfeit the charter OF the
bank. Demurrers had been filed by Presi
dent Briggs, Swift and others, and there
was an appearance OF lengthy legal argu-
ment upon a mutual understanding. The
argument was dropped, and a decision was
agreed upon by all parties, which dismisses
the action against the directors and off,
GERS, but finds that the bank had violated
the banking laws Of the United States ny
loaning money to D. A. Fitzpatrick
and Others upon the security OF
it's own capital stock, and
by permitting it's cash on hand
to fall below the required 25 per cent. OF
it's circulation and deposits, and by in
curing new obligations while in this insol-
vent condition. The charter OF the bank
is. therefore, declared forfeited. This action
puts all assets of the late bank in the
hands OF Receiver Armstrong and dissolves
ali attachments upon it's property, made
since the bank was seized by the govern
ment.
